So, well, let's see. While I support the fansubbers to bring out episodes as fast as life allows, this thread seemingly needs to be brought back from the dead, and start anew. While I, a very crazy nosebleeder, should have done my own backup of my posts, I'll have to put that behind me and just focus on the future. You all knew me as a nosebleeder, as a moe melter, and a just plane crazy guy. While all those memories are gone on paper, nothing inside me changes, and I look forward to being the nosebleeding, moe melting, crazed maniac and breath life unto this new thread.

Now, I'd like to post my summary of episode 11...but in a bit....

Episode 11 eh? Heh, still on ep3 subs, so can't comment much. Liking the series, though ToHeart is higher on my list currently at this point. Maybe later episodes of ToHeart 2 will change my mind and it will knock ToHeart into second place, who knows :)

I have to say I'm loving the character design for Lucy/ Ruka, she is uber-kawaii. But hey, I've got a serious thing for characters with long hair in those certain grey-purple-pink shades (Nanami in Lamune, Alice in DC:SS, Lumiere in Kiddy Grade, Kuki-Sama in Raimuiro Senkitan, Azmaria in Chrno Crusade, etc. etc. :D ).

Actually I'm somewhat grateful this incident happened, if it wasn't for the week long break from Animesuki I wouldn't have finally sat down to watch Ep 01 of To heart 2 and a few other animes I never got around too just because I prefered to sometimes read about them. Some good came out of this for someone I guess.

yeah, you know, when the forum went down, it actually had me sit down and think things thoroughly. I'm not saying I'm glad it went down, but, I feel changed, and with To Heart 2 being 12, 13 eps I'm interested to have new veiwers come in here and feel free to talk about the subs.

Yeah, I'm stuck back on ep 3 with the rest of the Japanese-impaired too, and Ruuko's also the one I'm looking forward to seeing the most. I agree there's just something about purple-pink hair :) I'm glad this is taking after the original To Heart as far as the pacing and atmosphere go, but I think it'll be really hard for To Heart 2 to improve on the original. The original's one of my favorite anime series, and from what I've seen so far Hiroyuki was a much stronger lead character than Takaki--so far Takaki (or Takagi?) just seems kind of generic. Not to mention from ep 2 he really, really sucks at hide and seek. Hiroyuki at least had some more personality.

Everybody knows that ToHeart is simply an excuse to parade Tamaki around ;D! But seriously, the funky chronology is kinda neat.

I like this show, it gives the Aria~esque slice-of-life-is-good feeling. Don't ask, it just does.

The last time they had a singular girl focus per ep was when I watched Seraphim Call, and that was on VHS...yup, a long time ago.

Could someone please explain what Tamaki was talking about at the end of episode eleven?

I've been wondering what she said for the past six days. :confused:

The show has been decent so far. In any case I can say without a doubt after watching eleven episodes that Karen herself is my favorite in the anime. Something about her just works and she's attractive too. I also am fond of Manaka to be honest.

Spoiler for Episode 11:

I don't remember the exact details, but basically Tamaki was formally introducing herself to everyone as Takaki's spouse in an indirect way, "uchi no Takaki (My Takaki)".

It's interesting to note that the way she said it is what a traditional wife would formally say to company ^^;;

<3 Tama-nee~

I thought it would be best to let you all know that there won't be any To Heart today, as on the 24th they'll treat us to a Compliation Special of some sort, followed by Episode 12 on the 31st. Now, hopefully fansubbers can give you all a nice boost while the broadcast is off for a few. Hmm, a 2 week total from 11 to 12....

On a side note, I'm expecting some kit building materials, and yes, the girls of To Heart 2 have crossed my mind...although there are already resin kits of some of the girls. Decisions, decisions....

Uhm, actually, lol, correction. I was looking at the wrong schedule :heh: the compilation special actually aired yesterday, yee glad I double checked or else I would've missed a great opportunity.

Now about the special compilation, it was basically a rundown of the episode of each of the girls. ie, we begin with Konomi's episode, then Tama-nee, Manaka, etc all into a nice 24+ minute special. Boring you say? Well, it wouldn't be called "special" for nothing. The glorious side of this whole special: The VA's for Konomi and Tama-nee were narrating the special as if they were watching the To Heart 2 anime :heh: it sounded awefully hilarious for Konomi to be watching herself in action, notable parts of the VA's are Konomi's and Tama-nee's reaction to seeing Takaki's hand on Karen's.....you know :heh: also, I think the part I laughed most of all was their reaction to Sango's kiss with Takaki :heh: :heh: lol that was major LOL right there, especially when Tama-nee was dazed afterward.

So we do get a preview of episode 12, this time again a Konomi episode. heh....can't decide between ribbon haired Konomi or bedtime haired Konomi :heh: :heh:

Only two episodes left... It seems they don't plan to go the good parts of the story... A bit dissapointing since there is enough content in a any girl's path to pull a 5-6 episodes each.

I will curse the animation studio if they plan to leave Yuuki and Sasara out of the show >.< *brandishes cursed doll and nail*

For some reason, I get stunned by ToHeart uniforms. :heh:

I once saw a doujinshi with Manaka in the cover and I just melted. Knowing about her backstory in episode 3 and certain blogs, I've decided have got to get myself the game to know more about Iincho. I think I'm in love. :love:
